A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

Louise's mum has sent her to stay in the country to "get away from it all." Join her for her first day in the sleepy village of Hindcross as she tries to get her bearings with help from her Auntie Elizabeth.

This game is a work in progress/practice piece I will hopefully be able to revisit later in the year. I hope to add several more chapters, introduce some more characters, and add further detail to some of the background art.


FEATURES:

  • just under 4000 words
  • one cute CG
  • colorful characters and settings

This game does not contain any sensitive content.

Very cute background and character art! Interested in seeing more of the story unfold in future chapters.

This is so cute and charming! The art for the backgrounds is lovely, and the character designs are all really nice and visually interesting! The bookshop keeper is very intriguing, I'm definitely interested to learn more about their deal in further chapters. The music was also very pretty, and helped set the scenes very well. You did a really great job creating an immersive experience, with the imagery and dialogue really helping to get into the mindset of Louise. It felt like a lovely mix of a Ghibli movie and an old English novel. I'm definitely excited to see more of it when you have the chance to continue, but this was also lovely on its own!
